The board can work to empower such teams with the resources they need to be effective, or by bringing a specific campaign or comment to their attention when needed. ** Are you planning to produce a "User Experience Road Map" for GNOME?

However, your idea sounds pretty nice, and if you or other people in the community were to try to pursue it and needed support or coordination across different teams, I think the board should be able to help you. ** Are you planning to involve GNOME Foundation or sign an alliance with > other non-profit organization, in order to support developers fixing users > requested bugs/wish lists/fix beheavoir of GNOME related projects?

I will always be supportive of initiatives like this, and will seek involvement from the GNOME board if one emerges, but I don't think I will have the bandwidth to start an initiative like that myself. Thanks for your questions, let me know if you have more! Cheers, Cosimo
